About this place
Set along a side street in Nishi-Azabu, Azabu Sushi Tanaami (麻布 鮨 田名網) is a sushi restaurant where diners can leisurely enjoy course meals highlighting seasonal seafood and meticulously prepared nigiri. The evening omakase course alternates between nigiri and thoughtfully composed small plates, presenting the day's best seasonal flavors. Fatty seasonal fish and delicately cured toppings harmonize with distinctly textured sushi rice, providing a rich, satisfying finish with each piece.
At lunchtime, choices range from an ingredient-focused omakase and nigiri-centric courses to a limited-quantity special lunch bara chirashi. With its colorful presentation, the bara chirashi or daytime omakase provides an inviting option for a slightly elevated lunch or a special occasion.
The drink lineup is equally comprehensive, selected to complement the food throughout the meal. Chilled sake varieties such as Hakurakusei and Yamagata Masamune are served alongside warmed Kuzuryu, the aromatic craft beer KAGUA Blanc, and an assortment of white wines and Champagne. Pairing a chosen glass with the delicate nuances of each topping elevates the classic sushi experience.
The interior centers around counter seating while also providing tranquil private rooms, creating an environment well-suited for enjoying a meal alongside quiet conversation. Accompanied by attentive hospitality, it is a venue where guests can focus on seasonal sushi at an unhurried pace, whether marking an anniversary, sharing a business dinner, or indulging in a personal treat.
